A new technique for minimally invasive irreversible electroporation of tumors in the head and body of the pancreas

BACKGROUND: Palliative irreversible electroporation of pancreatic adenocarcinomas is rapidly gaining in interest since a large proportion of these patients cannot be radically resected. METHODS: This is a description of a minimally invasive approach to irreversible electroporation of pancreatic tumo...

description BACKGROUND: Palliative irreversible electroporation of pancreatic adenocarcinomas is rapidly gaining in interest since a large proportion of these patients cannot be radically resected. METHODS: This is a description of a minimally invasive approach to irreversible electroporation of pancreatic tumors using computer-assisted navigation, laparoscopy and laparoscopic ultrasound to correctly guide electrodes into the tissue. RESULTS: The procedure is presented. CONCLUSION: Minimally invasive irreversible electroporation of pancreatic tumors through computer-assisted navigation of needles during laparoscopy is a feasible and accurate approach. ELECTRONIC SUPPLEMENTARY MATERIAL: The online version of this article (doi:10.1007/s00464-016-5173-6) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.
